	The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state-of-the-art 3-GeV third generation light source currently under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The first part of the Linac to Booster Transport (LBT) line has been installed for the linac commissioning. This part will be used for the linac acceptance test. In this paper, we describe the preparation of the LBT sub-system integration test and the high level applications.
